I fear the languages in my head…

I have always been a rabid film lover. During my early
college years, I could care less if I had to cut classes just so I can attend
film festivals. Back then, art films and independent films did not cause much
stir and so opportunities to watch them were rare. How times have changed
indeed! Now we have various film festivals occurring just about every month!
Just this August there was the German Film Festival. Check out the lineup of
films for the month of September and October below. Tapos sa November may
Cinemanila Festival pa. Astig. Too bad for me since I can’t just cut my
attendance to work – especially my line of work. But I will still try to catch
some screenings.
